I used Fraps for a long time but I could never find a good app to display cpu and gpu data (usage, temp) in game. Then I found Playclaw and haven't went back to Fraps since.

I'd highly recommend it for anyone looking for a better alternative to Fraps.

Ehhh, I use to use PlayClaw, but then I realized built into MSI-Afterburner there is a video recording application. you can show all the usual info on screen plus record any length any size. No more watermarked or limited stuff from using free versions of playclaw or Fraps
If you already overclock, might as well use the utility built into your software.

I had problems with Playclaw 3's overlays. After positioning one and returning to the main config screen the entire thing would become unresponsive. I could lighlight menu options and buttons but they wouldn't register clicks and using the hot key I set did sweet FA. Only fix was restart either playclaw or game (cod4).

Norton says it is a "Suspicious Cloud7" type of file. So, I submitted it for review to symantec so they can decompile it.

I think it does this because of the activation bit, but it's indeed good to let Symantec check it out.

Did they fix two things thou
Can you use MMB for recording audio now? It didn't detect mouse inputs before.
Did they fix how videos are recorded? If I ever used an uncompressed format, or anything VLC can't open it.

PlayClaw 3 has 3 modes: no compression, low compression (its own codec) and mjpeg compression.
p.s. latest PlayClaw 3 version has bad bug... do not start uninstall if you want to update PlayClaw 3 to another build or you will get problems with all system codecs. Simply install over previous build.

My primary reason for buying it was the TS overlay and that's not changed a huge deal over the last few major versions so can't comment if it's better in other aspects. The 3.x in game would often become unresponsive for me meaning I had to tab out and kill the process to get back to game.
